About the book:An unlikely duo meet in Play It Again, a story of love, life and faith. Sparks fly when an ex-rock and roll junkie and a stuffy accountant rendezvous at a local resort, but neither are prepared for the emotional entanglements, family complications, and threat from the past that unexpectedly resurfaces. Set in the 1980s, this story brings two opposing forces together in a clash of romance and danger, while its musical undertones highlight the theme that God can turn anything into beautiful music. Play It Again is the much anticipated prequel to Tracy’s debut novel And the Beat Goes On. Find out where Mark Graham’s journey began in this, the story of his parents.

What others are saying about PLAY IT AGAIN:“This is one of the best contemporary novels I've read all year. . . Not only was it well-written, but it was edgy in that the story dared to be honest. . . I can see this touching a lot of people who have thought about God but have been afraid to move forward.”- Michelle Sutton, author of more than a dozen inspirational novels“This book is hot property, and grabs your interest from page one.”- Yvonne Pat Wright, author of From Spice to Eternity

About Me

I'm a Catholic writer and artist who also works as a translator and editor. I love all genres of literature, especially supernatural, speculative fiction, horror and mystery/suspense and have published two books in a vampire series, two fairy tale mystery novels and some translated works. As a writer with a degree in theology, many of my favorite novels tend to have a spiritual or mystical theme, as does my own writing. In art I'm also pretty eclectic and love artwork from many movements and media, my favorites being the Pre-Raphaelites, Romantics and Impressionist painters. Some of my own artwork can be found on Zazzle. I have six dogs - five Rottweilers and a Foxhound mix who are some of my most frequent art models and who, who knows? may wind up as characters in a book one day.
